Avoid at all cost! One of the worst attorneys out there.

A friend recommended me Mr. Sanchez. Unfortunately I had different experience with him then she had. The most uninformed lawyer I have come across. He is only interested in taking your money and does not know about the case, or the law related to the case. Even when asked about what to do next, he do...es not have the answers. Too bad I was late to research about him, asked three other people who have been his clients, and all three people have had the same experience. He screwed up my case by making a mistake which I should have requested my money back. What the hack have I payed for?! Please save your money and go to a better attorney for immigration matters. He has no experience, no interest in the individual clients or their classes. Test it: Next time when you go to him ask him a question or two about your case. He will give you a round about answer about the process but he will have no idea what your individual case is about. Bad lawyer. Will not recommend him to anyone.

Residencia y Perdon. US Residency with Pardon

Nuestra experiencia con el proceso de inmigración era extremadamente difícil hasta que nos encontramos con el Sr. Sánchez y su ayudante Gisela. Ellos tienen conocimiento y experiencia de trabajo con este tipo de caso . Lo recomendaría a cualquiera que busque un abogado de inmigración , porque no sól...o hicieron el trabajo , pero todo fue exactamente como me dijeron que sería en la línea de tiempo. Es muy difícil para una persona normal pasar por este proceso y no saber qué esperar . La contratación de Sr. Sánchez fue la mejor decisión que hemos tomado. Después de 13 años de decepciones, debido a las personas de poca confianza , podemos tener paz y descanso. No podríamos haber pasado este proceso sin la dirección del Sr. Sánchez y su asistente Gisela . Our experience with the immigration process was extremely difficult until we came across Mr. Sanchez. He and his assistant Gisela are very knowledgeable and experienced with working these types of cases. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an immigration attorney because not only did they do the work, but everything went exactly as they said it would in the timeline given. It is very difficult for a regular person to go thru this process not knowing what to expect. Hiring Mr. Sanchez was the best decision we ever made. After 13 years of disappointments, due to untrustworthy people, we can have peace and rest. We could not have gotten thru this process without the guidance of Mr. Sanchez and his assistant Gisela.

Extremely Satisfied

First, I would like to thank Mr. Sanchez for helping me apply for my resident visa, a process that took about 2 years with my husband as a petitioner, I could not be any happier. We went to Juarez MX for the interview/appointment this past week and everything went, thanks to Mr. Sanchez for filling t...he correct applications and pardons I'm truly blessed to have hired Mr. Sanchez as my lawyer, I highly recommend him he is a very thorough with the applications and paperwork. Thank you Mr. Sanchez for everything. God Bless, Lilian

He processed my permanent recidency

My husband and I used this lawyer to process my permanent resident card. He allowed us to make payments for his services that was amazing since I had to pay homeland security a fine for staying past my permit on top of all the other normal processing fees. Once I had given him all my paperwork I rece...ived my work visa shortly after and a few months after that got the letter for the interview. The process moved slowly after that but that was homeland security not the lawyer! He did go with us to the appointment and was available through email to answer all my questions in a promptly manner!

Phony. Don't waste your money.

I am DREAMER that applied for the Deferred Action of Childhood Arrivals through this attorney. I am currently still waiting for my permit since October of 2012. I have never even seen this guy. I am only always dealing with his secretary whom does not help or inform me thoroughly about anything. When... I ask her about any update on my application status, the only reply I always get is "we will contact you in a week or so." I am tired of going back and forth bringing everything they ask me and yet they still say that there was a problem with my application. How am I supposed to know what to do if I don't know exactly what was the problem? Overall the service is very poor, the building itself is in a very poor condition. I do not recommend anyone going there and waste their money. You are better of representing yourself.

Replied last April 21, 2016

Regretfully no name was provided by this individual, so I cannot verify if he is even a client of mine. I do meet with all my clients and assure that they understand the process. Sometimes a client does not bring sufficient evidence to support his case, and he is asked to return with the required evidence to obtain a favorable result. These follow up meetings are conducted through my staff. Once the package is completed I meet with the client to review the application before its sent. In this case, it seems like the intended dreamer was never able to bring all the required evidence to support his claim.
